Why GE's Selling Its Appliance Division

"That's because the bureaucrat's have sent all the manufacturing out of the country already! Perhaps if our educational system wasn't in shambles, the engineers in this country would be properly trained. Instead they become "business" majors!"

Americafirst..... the problem lies in the fact that many unions don't understand how business works, the importance and necessity of shareholders. Maybe if some of them truly understood business they wouldn't end up causing businesses to close, putting their members out on the street.

The engineers are pressured to cut all the corners they can to affect cost savings, savings many of the unions refuse to participate in. Don't blame the engineers, it's through their cost saving attempts that the union rank-in-file has enjoyed a comfortable standard of living. The employees have a say in the quality of the products they produce at GE, so what's your excuse there?
